Blistien sports with Joms?

[e30 gangsta]

Hey guys question, I've read up that you cannot use blistien sports withjoms because the gland nut opening is too small. Would it be possible to run a blistien strut using the Jom gland nut, if you made the hole on the gland nut bigger? Thanks.

I would like to know this too. I haven't heard this though. Yet I haven't looked into it too much either

I have read and searched and have not come across it. If its been done, is my theory of making the hole in the glad nut wider correct?

I used the bilstein gland nuts. Kind of a waste to put bilsteins on Joms. Your better off selling the joms complete and tossing on a coilover conversion kit like GC, TCkline, etc with the bilsteins.

I dont mind the front stiffness of the joms. The springrate is surprisingly alright for me. The rear is the issue. Bottoms out like crazy and the springs are too soft. I plan to buy some aftermarket gc springs and run some billys with the modified bumpstop. Im just trying to figure out how to run the billys with the joms, since I know the jom shocks wont last forever.

So your replacing the Joms shocks, struts, and rear springs. So basically your only retaining a front sleeve which you have to butcher and the front springs. Sell it all instead of discarding most of it. Making all those changes made me realize i could make a better kit to suit my needs.
